Zecora

With a sudden shadow enveloping Zecora and the others, the zebra slowly looked up to see Shiny, who was perched on top of a wall. Looking down at the group as said group was moving away from the transformed pony. "Run and keep your distance as Shiny is around the town! Make sure to have fire and water with you and it shall slow her down!" Zecora exclaimed, dodging and weaving around Shiny, who was attacking the group. As each other stuffed animal plush made their attacks on the transformed mare, it looked as if the attacks were working, but still not phasing Shiny. With hope looking to be lost, Zecora heard what sounded like a roar. Craning her neck towards the source, she saw that it was the sound of a polar bear. "Oh, my. Is that a polar bear? Now that's something I didn't expect to appear out of nowhere." Zecora wondered how and where this polar bear had appeared, but the bear looked to be on their side. With the polar bear landing atop of Shiny, CatNap had managed to pour the cure into Shiny's mouth. Shielding her eyes from the blinding light, it looked as if Shiny had slowly began to transform back to her original self. With the light dissipating, Zecora slowly opened her eyes to see that Shiny had returned. Sighing in relief, the zebra smiled as it looked like her work here was done. "With all of us working together, all has turned out well. Shiny is back to normal, that I can truly tell." Zecora says, grabbing her vials, potion brewing materials and saddlebag. "With everything now back to normal, my work here is done. Despite everything that's happened, I must say it was a lot of fun." Waving at the group, Zecora took her leave as she started to head back to her hut in the Everfree Forest.

With more magic that was being used by Saturn, Zecora watched as two dinosaurs, a triceratops and a brachiosaurus were brought alongside a hoof height cat and bumblebee. "It's looks like more and more help is here. Now we need to make sure that the plan is crystal clear." Taking a look at all of the friends Saturn had brought, a plan was being formulated in the zebra's mind. "Have some of your friends reach the others friends. They'll surely bring the support with all the help they will lend." She explained, handing @Dah Onion Eater Saturn multiple vials of the cure inside. "Take these and make sure your friends and the others acquire these vials. For these will be the key towards our grand trial." She explained, handing a vial to both @Dah Onion Eater Ghostie and @Emerald Heart Emerald to take, as well.

Humming in thought, the zebra continued to brew the potion together with @Dah Onion Eater Ghostie and @Emerald Heart Emerald. Upon hearing Saturn's plan, Zecora watched as both CatNap, along with an orange dog and green rabbit have appeared. "Who might these two fluffy friends be? Strength in numbers area a good theory from one to three." Zecora says, taking note of the three stuffed animals. However, she looked over towards those that had been affected by the poison joke. From @Dynamo Pad Dynamo to @Wizard Titanium, to @Nitobit Moonlight, to even @Discord. Even looking back towards Ghostie, Emerald and finally her eyes fell to Saturn. "I think your plan of distraction with these friends the task, while good in theory, might still be quite tough. I think with even more friends, saving Shiny will be more than enough."

While Zecora was discussing what she knew about Shiny's transformation, her ears suddenly twitched at a new voice that was talking to the trio. Her eyes and head craning towards the source, the zebra was met with Saturn, who was leaning against the tree. All the while, chomping on a raspberry. "What kind of skills do you require or idea do you have in mind? Any and all help will indeed be kind. The last time this had occurred, I was in the Evefree. Along with many distractions from Timberwolves, other animals and the trees. With this being Ponyville, much more difficult this will be. However, given that more hooves will work together will surely be the key."

Zecora's eyes widened slightly in surprise, taking her ingredients and bowls and started mixing together a cure for the poison joke. "This sounds like quite the disaster. Hopefully this cure will help fix things quite faster." Zecora says, stopping as she glanced around the corner of the building she, @Dah Onion Eater Ghostie and @Emerald Heart Emerald were hiding behind. Looking back, she took a breath, before sighing slowly. "I've seen this happen to Shiny once before. I hoped to never see quite a sight like this no more. It's not just her spider-like legs that are her Achilles heel. Fire and water are something to help strike fear. Giving this cure to Shiny will not be an easy task. For we must find a way for our movement that we must mask." The zebra had learned that Shiny could see from just about every which way, but with the right distraction, they could give her the potion.

With Zecora finishing up shopping for the ingredients she needed, she stashed them away in her saddlebags for safe keeping. "It's always reassuring to find such a fine herb, now to find out what the commotion was that I hope is superb." Making her way down the road and out of the shopping district, the zebra had managed to turn the corner. Only to see a giant cat plush was knocked down from what looked to have been an attack by magic. Taking in the sight of the stage of the Big Goof Off, Zecora's jaw dropped with a gasp. "This just cannot be. It looks like Shiny Silvermoon has been taken over by poison joke, I see." Hiding back around the corner, she wondered how something like this could have happened. Had Shiny made her way through the Everfree Forest again? As she was taking note of everything going on, @Emerald Heart Emerald and @Dah Onion Eater Ghostie had rushed back into town. She turned to see the duo running towards her, while holding up a hoof to stop them in their approach. "Be careful to not turn the corner and look around. In fear of the what truly might be found." Grabbing the supplies she had bought previously at the market, she had grabbed her tools to help mix herbs and flowers together. "Would you mind explaining what befell our friend? I hope that it'll not be too late to give them the cure that can mend." She says, hoping that the two would explain how and why Shiny turned into this form.

Once Emerald and Ghostie make their trek into the dark forest and discover Zecora's hut, the two of them knock on the front door. However, after a moment, there was no response. If they knocked again, the two would be met with no response once more. If the two look more closely upon the door, there would be a note. "Due to a mess of ingredients that lead to mopping, I must head to Ponyville for more shopping." Speaking of Zecora, the zebra was found roaming around the Ponyville shopping district. As she looked from left to right, she smiled softly as she was finding what she was looking for. "It's a good thing that shopping in Ponyville truly comes in handy. Otherwise, the potions I'd need to brew would not be so dandy." She rhymed, her ears perking at the sound of some panic, while also hearing the sound of a performance happening. "Now what kind of commotion could that be? I suppose once shopping is complete I shall see."
